It’s nearly that time of the year again when the school show comes to life. Fol-lowing in Mr Dunlop’s footsteps, Mr Withers from the History depart-ment has penned another original piece entitled Café Rosenheim. There will be highs and lows, as well as the odd comic moment on stage and the experience will begin from the mo-ment you enter the school.

The story is set in a quaint, remote and peaceful village called Rosenheim just in-side the border of Ger-many. We begin in 1936 and despite 4 years of Nazi

rule, Rosenheim has re-mained untouched. With the social life of the town centred in Café Rosen-heim, we are concerned

with the friendship of Otto Fischer and Friedrich Schmitz.

As usual our performers are made up from across the Roe Valley Learning

The annual Young Enterprise Entrepreneurship Master-class took place on Thursday 18th November in the Water-foot Hotel in Londonderry. 8 Year 13 pupils attended and they had an excellent day working with pupils from St Columb’s. The day began with an ice breaker activity which in-volved each team working

together to make tickets for a Festival, the more tickets that were produced gave each team more capital

to spend on the organisation of their Festival. The next activity

involved the organisation of the festival using the capital they had raised earlier!

The highlight of the day was the talk from Billy Dickson – motivational guru, he told the pupils how to walk, dress and present themselves so that they would be successful in their future careers.
